GUEST POST from Stroh Bing - New type of campsite directory

Here is a post from Stroh Bing (thanks again) about a place located in Ratmaw (183, 33, 451)...
This should help you (and me...) to find good campsites easily.

"Hey Campers!!

Stroh Bing here with a new way for us to make sure
no campsite sits empty....

The Freemoney Group has it's very own camp bench..

Not just any campbench, we got the biggest one
in SecondLife.. AND It has links to camping benches
all over SL.

If you need a place to camp, drop by and check out
the globes on the wall..

If you find a new place with camping sites sitting
empty, you can make a land mark and drop it on
any globe that is labeled "drop camping landmark
here"

Coming soon are free avatars to get rid of noob
skins that many campsites operators do not like..
Camping gear.. etc..

Don't let good camp sites sit empty!!!
Don't let Free Lindens go to waste..

Camp On!!"

Campsite directory - Prototype 1

If you're a good observer, you probably noticed a new element on this blog, as the very bottom of the page. Scroll down, you will find three lines stating that someone earned a certain amount at a certain place.

This is the visible part of an inventory system I developed today. Yes, I went to SL scripting again. The idea is quite simple: when you want to report a good camping session, you just say the amount you earned to a "JLR camping reporter". This (ugly looking) bracelet then gets your name and location, and your report becomes visible on the blog ! It's so easy, and then all campers can get fresh updates about good campsites.

During the prototype development I already identified a few issues, but before fixing everything I will distribute 10 of them for testing. So if you're interested in one, IM me. First come - first serve !

A special thank you to Angle Binder, who kindly accepted to be the very first tester, you're soooo sweeet.
